The problem is that there is a hard coded maximum, since we don't want to allocate pool while holding the FILSYS lock, that restricts the number of processes we can store information on. The version distributed had this value at 20, setup via a #define processCount 20 near the top of the program. I will release a newer version toward the end of the week that better deals w/ exceeding this value, and will also set the default value to a higher limit. As a work around, simply edit processCount to be 100 or something better. >Don't feel obligated Ed.
